Notes - The RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 19, p. 279 & 280, says that Nathan Munro b 29 Sep 1730 Br, son of John & Hannah, is the one who married Sarah Kinnecut. However, a genealogy at Rootsweb has Sarah's husband as Nathan b 3 Oct 1730, son of Joseph & Mary (Bowerman) Munro. This birth is not in the VRs so I have not been able to verify it. Another online genealogy has Nathan, son of John & Hannah, marrying Hannah Allen rather than Sarah. Apparently there were two Nathans born around the same time.
From Bristol VRs: The Nathan Munro who married Mrs. Hannah Allen was "of Bristol." The one who married Mrs. Elizabeth Kinnecutt four years later was "of Warren." They both were married at Bristol by Rev. John Burt. And, another Nathan Munroe married Mrs. Catherine Bragg in 1756 at Bristol, by the same minister. No wonder all these Nathan Munros are confused by genealogists!
Did he died in 1793 or 1801?
MUNRO Capt. Nathan, Jr., Sept. 7, 1793, Br.
